Carbine Studios has finally announced a release date for its space-themed MMORPG, WildStar. We've been following the game for years, so it's nice to know that at long last, the game will release worldwide on June 3rd.

But what you're really here for is to read about the bonus stuff, huh? The Standard Edition will retail for $59.99 USD, and include the game, 30 days of play time, three 7-day friend passes, as well as an Eldan-themed Housing Decor item. Nothing too fancy, but three passes to try the game with friends is a nice bonus, no?

For an extra $15, the Digital Deluxe Edition includes all of the above, plus:

an Eldan Hoverboard (seen below)

a unique costume

a unique Eldan player title

limited-edition Eldan dye set

While the Deluxe bonuses are nice, I think the best perks come to those who pre-order either edition. Starting March 19th, pre-ordering players will earn the following:

Early game access beginning Tuesday, May 31 (three days prior to the game’s official launch)

In North America, you'll be able to pre-order from the WildStar website itself, Amazon, GameStop, or Best Buy. Head over to the official pre-order website for more edition comparisons, and a list of places to pre-order for your own country. That page also contains a FAQ and full system requirements as well.

A couple of us have been playing the beta version of WildStar recently, so be on the lookout for a hands-on preview in the near future!
